Correctional Facilities Shouted Out by Petey Pablo

I've been following the Hip Hop Map Project for a while but don't think I've posted anything from it. This is a map of all the correctional facilities in North Carolina mentioned by Petey Pablo in Raise Up. Admittedly the main reason I like it is for the innovative use of handcuffs as point symbols.

His music is full of geographic references though he says them so fast it's hard to keep on top of them all. Anyway, if you really want to dig into it there's a list of all the places mentioned on the project page.

YO!!! How am I just now seeing this! I appreciate you for sharing one of my maps, especially this one. I thought he was just shouting out cities at first until I dug deeper. Thanks again for supporting The Hip-Hop Map Project!
